Abstract The four major peanut types and several peanut products were analyzed for total lipids, fatty acid content, fat, ash and protein. Runner and Virginia types contained similar amounts of oleic and linoleic acids that were significantly different from those found in Valencia and Spanish types of peanuts. Characterization of the peanut types into groups by fatty acid profiles was more definitive than by sterol profiles. No significant differences in fat, ash or protein content were found between the various peanut types. Peanut products did not always exhibit the same fatty acid and sterol profiles as peanuts.

Due to demand for development of sustainable alternative liquid insulation for transformers, vegetable oils have attracted many researchers as potential substitute to traditionally used mineral oil. Even though vegetable oils have better dielectric characteristics, they have some demerits related to its flow nature due to presence of fatty acid content in it. In this work, it is proposed to study the characteristics and analyze the suitability of crude and refined form of ground nut oil and gingelly oil as liquid insulation after processing for removal the fatty acid components. For removing the fatty acid content from investigating oil samples, transesterification process is adopted in this work. Suitability of oil samples are investigated with measurement of the properties related to flow characteristics (viscosity and pour point), electrical characteristic (breakdown voltage) and thermal flammability characteristic (flash point). The investigation reveals that the investigated vegetable oil samples have necessary characteristics to be an alternative to traditional transformer oil in future.

Cyanobacteria are Gram negative prokaryotes that are capable of oxygenic photosynthesis. Although there are many similarities between eukaryotes and cyanobacteria in electron transfer and phosphorylation during photosynthesis, there are two features of the photosynthetic apparatus in cyanobacteria which distinguishes them from plants. Cyanobacteria contain phycobiliproteins organized in phycobilisomes on the surface of photosynthetic membrane. Another difference is in the organization of the photosynthetic membranes. Instead of stacked thylakolds within a chloroplast envelope membrane, as seen In eukaryotes, IntracytopIasmlc membranes generally are arranged in three to six concentric layers. Environmental factors such as temperature, nutrition and light fluency can significantly affect the physiology and morphology of cells. The effect of light Intensity shifts on the ultrastructure of Internal membrane in Anabaena variabilis grown under controlled environmental conditions was examined. Since a major constituent of cyanobacterial thylakolds are lipids, the fatty acid content also was measured and correlated with uItrastructural changes. The regulation of fatty acid synthesis in cyanobacteria ultimately can be studied if the fatty acid content can be manipulated.
